Advanced/Experimental

 

The commands listed below are unofficially supported. They are either experimental and/or use at your own risk. These commands may be removed in future releases.

 

/alphablend [1-255]

Adjusts the main window transparency. 1 is completely transparent, 255 is solid. If you make the window completely transparent you can get it back by clicking the task-bar entry and minimizing and then restoring the window. Whenever the window is minimized and restored this setting is reset.

 

/CopyAsHttpUrl <path+filename>

This will transform a server path+filename into a HTTP URL and copy it to the clipboard. For this to work the site profile must define the "Copy URL - Mapping", the "Http URL" and the "Server Web Root Path" fields.

 

/dialog <name>

The following dialogs can be shown:

calculate_server_space_used,  config_backup,  config_restore,  edit_selective_transfer_rules,  file_associations, file_transfer_rules, filters,  key_manager,  language_download,  language_translate,  preferences,  quick_connect, restore_info,  restore_queue,  schedule, schedule_at,  server_file_search, site_manager, text_editor

 

The custom command script exits after displaying the dialog, any commands following the /dialog command are ignored.

 

You can pass several additional flags when displaying the server_file_search dialog to set the search parameters.

 

-name="<name>"

The search pattern.

 

-path="<path>"

The base folder to start searching from.

 

-type=<0 | 1 | 2>

0= display all  1= display files only  2= display folders only

 

-depth=<value>

Limit search depth

 

-size-type=<0 | 1 | 2>

0= disabled  1= at most  2= at least

-size=<KB>

match file size in KB

 

-nolinks

Do not follow symbolic links while traversing folders.

 

-date-limit=<0 | 1>

Limit search to folders modified within the defined range. 0= disabled  1= enabled

 

-date-days=<days>

Limit search to number of days

 

-date-months=<months>

Limit search to number of months

 

-date-start=<DD/MM/YYYY>

-date-end=<DD/MM/YYYY>

Limit search to dates between -start and -end

Date format might be locale dependent and may not be DD/MM/YYYY (untested).

 

/shredfile <filename>

This local command will securely delete the file using a 7-pass method. Stage 1, 3, 5 fill the file with $00, stages 2,4,6 with $FF, and stage 7 with random bytes. Is this really secure? maybe. This is comparable to other secure delete methods offered by other software.

 

/skiplist <on | off>

This command can be used to toggle the current state of the skiplist.

 

/setfolderdate [-rc] <path>

This local command can be used to set the modified date of a folder to the newest item within the folder.

The r flag can be used to perform the operation on <path> and recursively to all sub-folders within <path>

The c flag will update the creation date to the oldest item within the folder.

 

/sndplay <filename>

This command can be used to play a sound (.wav) file. This is an asynchronous operation.

 

/queue [-f |-d] <source> [target]

Use this command to queue a file/folder directly when you know the name.

[-f | -d] defines the item type; -f as file and -d as a directory.

<source> uses the active side as the source; this can either be the absolute path or an item name relative to the current directory.

[target] uses the opposite side as the target; to use the current directory and original filename omit this field, otherwise provide an absolute path+filename.

This command does not require the source or target to exist; this is deferred until the queued item is transferred.

 

 

Predefined /set variables

 

@edit_last@ contains the local absolute path+filename of the last file opened for edit.

 

@edit_prev@ contains the local absolute path+filename of the previous file opened for edit.

 

Open Araxis Merge and compare the last two files opened for edit:
